<h4>Objective</h4>We aimed to establish a tool for rapid identification of KL49 <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i>.<h4>Methods</h4>Based on the capsular polysaccharide (CPS) synthesis genes database, we investigated the distribution of K locus type 49 (KL49) genes in other KL types and established a rapid identification method for KL49. We collected 61 clinical carbapenem-resistant <i>A. baumannii</i> (CRAB) strains, identified KL49 by <i>gtr100</i> detection, and used whole genome sequencing (WGS) ...[more]
